After a five-week period of capital outflows, exchange-traded funds (ETFs) have Bitcoin finally a positive one trends Recent data point to a strong rebound in investor demand, although this latest increase was insufficient to fully offset the damage recorded earlier in February.

According to data from SoSoValue, Spot Bitcoin ETFs saw total net inflows of $787,31 million last week, the first positive addition after a five-week streak of inflows. This turnaround was primarily driven by three consecutive days of positive inflows on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday, bringing the balance back into positive territory.

These figures reflect the renewed willingness of institutional and ETF-based investors to dive back into Bitcoin after a prolonged period of negative flows. However, these strong weekly results contrast with the overall monthly net inflows, which still ended in the red. Due to the large outflows that occurred earlier in the month, February closed with a total net outflow of $206,52 million from Spot Bitcoin ETFs.

The resilience of ETF holders was also recently on display in comments made by crypto expert Nate Geraci on the social media channel X. He emphasized that investors in Spot Bitcoin ETFs have largely retained their confidence despite Bitcoin’s recent declines.

Geraci noted that the recent outflows are modest in the broader context of the asset class's overall growth. Since Bitcoin reached its record high in early October, Spot Bitcoin ETFs have experienced approximately $6,5 billion in net outflows. Nevertheless, these outflows are relatively small compared to the $55 billion the funds have attracted since their launch in January 2024. He also pointed to the more than $1 billion that flowed in from Tuesday to Thursday, a striking example of how quickly sentiment can change.

The uptick isn't limited to Bitcoin-based funds. Spot Ethereum ETFs also showed investor interest midweek, breaking what could otherwise have been a six-week runoff. Net inflows totaled $80,46 million for the week. While smaller than Bitcoin's, this represents the first sign of broader stabilization in sentiment surrounding crypto ETFs.

In summary, the inflows into both Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs indicate that institutional demand may be rebuilding after a series of weeks of negative flows. Whether this marks the beginning of a sustained recovery or merely a short-lived relief also depends on broader market conditions and how current geopolitical tensions develop in the coming weeks.
